Upcoming sale mga kasama! Ang pinaka-aabangan ng lahat! ;D :D
Sale again sa Astro Podium this coming Feb 29 up to March 2! :o
As per info from sir Jimmy (Astro):
"It's a leap year! Come and join us at the Podium 3 day Sale feb 29 to March 2 as we take a giant leap OFF our prices!"
Kita-kits mga kasama! :D
-
I hope Astro Podium goes below the Php 199 price level, especially for the new-ish imported Vivas, Magnas and Warners.

From SLEX go C5. U-turn under Ortigas Ave flyover to go other direction. Right on Julia Vargas. Straight through Meralco Ave and then turn right at ADB ave, you will see Podium shortly on the left side (You have to make a U-turn again in the next island break).
Here's a pic of the mall for your visual reference:

Naku I didn't bother anymore purposely because I already went over my budget. Sorry.

Oki lang, sir! :) am definitely going to the sale anyways, just too eager to know what's in there... hehehe! sana may matira pa... ;)
-
Schindler's List (2DVD) is down to P375. There are a lot of P150 titles there, down from the recent P199 markdown. Too many to list. This sale is very worth going for.
-
I was hoping they'd lower it down further, since it's also Php 375 in other Astro stores.
-
Just came from Astro Podium, I bought about 22 DVD's :o
-
I wonder why Superman Returns is still at P550? 300 is still at P599. The Departed is also at P550. With everything else marked so low, I wonder why Superman still maintain a high pricetag?
-
Did you notice if there are good deals on audio CDs, too? Thanks! :)

Spider-Man 3 (Two-Disc Special Edition) no stocks
Die Hard 4.0 (Two-Disc Special Edition) no stocks
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (Two-Disc Limited Edition) Php 375 sold out
Pathetic marked down prices by:
Warner --> didn't look much at their box sets, but most other titles retained their sale price at other stores; and if you're looking for marked down prices on new titles, you're in for a big disappointment. The Warner table is noticeably devoid of bargain hunters.
Sale showdown between:
Viva & Magna --> even the reps seem to be having a slight argument. I was lurking around near the Magna rep, who at one time, was in a light conversation with who I believe to be the Viva rep. I think the Viva rep was questioning the Magna rep on how they got to lower their prices to ridiculously LOW levels. I didn't eavesdrop too long, but it seems the Magna lady answered by saying that whenever Viva is having a nationwide sale, Magna is forced to lower their prices as well. Something like that.
The winner:
Magna --> it's a close tie with Viva, but on the whole, Magna offered the cheaper DVD deals between the two.
The verdict:
Personally, this is THE BEST Astro Sale ever! Prices have gone to record lows, you can't count how many costumers are carrying full shopping baskets (which can accomodate around 40 DVD's). Mucho kudos to Magna and Viva! And to Warner, please be generous next time. Warner used to be the darling of DVD sales. What's happening?
-
aww! la ng potc3? i was looking forward to buying it. will go there tomorrow. hay! sana may iba pa kong mahanap na titles.
did anyone see if STARDUST dvd is already part of the sale?
-
No, Stardust isn't part of the sale. Still at Php 695.
-
Hmm..I didn't know that there was a POTC-At World's End 2disc with slipcase. I got mine without a slipcase earlier. :-\
Anyway, I got a total of 32pcs today, still thinking if I would go back. I was advised that Magna still has a lot of titles to dispose, the encoding slows them down. Today by far, is my most number of DVD's bought in a single purchase,..and never shall I do this again. ;D
The Superman Collection in Tin is a good buy for those wanting to have one,from 3,750ph to 2,500ph.

Was just there this morning. Superman Returns, The Departed, Blood Diamond were lowered to P525 (or was it P475. I forgot). I didn't buy them.

Wala ng Fantastic Four and POTC 3 2-disk. :(

Cheers to Magna and Viva who ruled this sale and showed how a price mark down really should be.
And for Warner, you know what to do next time.
I had a second visit today and it is so nice to see Astro like a tiangge, baskets and body bumpin' on the aisles. I noticed a lot of buyers like there will be no tomorrow in grabbing their loots, (I am one of them) ;D
So when is the next sale? :D

till the next sale...
god bless...

I failed to report this before, but here goes.
When I was in the sale last Friday, as I mentioned before, I was sort of "hanging around" near the Magna rep lady. She had on her hands a roll of those "Imported DVD" triangular stickers. She was pasting them on Magna DVD's that ought to have one pasted on them. Anyway, I don't know if it was out of confusion or whatever, but I could swear she stuck one on a budget edition DVD. I know I should have pointed it out to her, but I didn't want her to think I was inspecting her work or something. Prior to that, I asked her if they had an imported version of "Running With Scissors". She then gave me a copy, and told me it was imported. But seriously doubting it, I asked her how to find out if a DVD is imported or not, by just looking at the cover. She then explained some number codes on the spine that would identify locally-minted DVD's, and of course the features grid on the back art. Seeing that the copy she gave me had the indications of being a local DVD, I pointed it out to her, and she admitted her mistake naman. Anyway, I don't think it was a deliberate mistake, since she was running all around the store, clearly overwhelmed by all the customers rummaging through her company's goods.
-

Great Sale!
-
got 15 dvds :). from now on ill refrain from buying dvd's at full price every now and then and buy in bulk whenever there is a sale. you get more for your money.
-
2. Ten Commandments 3disc for P375 :o (I'm quite surprised pdvd members who posted here didn't pick this up)
Maybe because, like me, most have picked it up during previous sales when it was 650 or so...
-

I also got a copy of Running With Scissors and I'm 200% sure it's imported tho I haven't opened it yet. You can easily spot the imported from the budget by just looking at the exterior casing . The printing on almost all budget dvds have this blurry, smudgy look. It's really crude. And the paper is not glossy.
On the other hand, one of the characteristics of an imported dvd is the presence of a red & black "no copying" icon on the extreme lower portion at the back. And of course, you also have to trust that gut feeling that it's authentically not budget hehehe.

Maybe not that many people like the official spokesperson of the U.S. National Rifle Association, perhaps...? Just kidding ;D Peace!!!
-
I was supposed to get Pirates Of the Carribean: World's End 2 Disc - but unfortunately it was gone Friday night. Sayang I didn't know they restocked early the next morning. So I got myself Aliens Special Edition for P150. I thought it was 2 disc kasi nakalagay dun sa sticker with the price code... hindi pala. Sigh.

Nice haul a.
Agahan nyo dun mamaya, Boss Dan. hehehe, para kakaunti pa lang tao. Was at Podium at around 1030AM yesterday kaya d pa madugo. AM also thinking of going back today. Hirap talaga itong "sakit" natin ;D
Happy hunting sa last day ng sale. ;)
I wasn't able to go back anymore, settled for the Astro sale at SM Southmall (which is nearer).
I don't think it's a "sakit" ;D I just like watching movies as much as reading books. It just so happens I have a lot of DVDs as well as books. ;D Hobby ba talaga? Hehe.

Hahahahaha. d na nga rin ako nakabalik e. had to do some errands nung sunday ........ kaya, until the next sale na lang. hehehehe.
Let's just call it a "hobby" na lang para d tayo halata na may "sakit" na. bwahahahaha.
Good one, Boss Dan. ;D

ako konti lang, and all for below P200:
The Fast and the Furios (not a fan of the movie, but I just want to hear the sound effects)
Shrek
The Inside Man

yup.. salamat sa inyo dito for the information on the sale.
have never seen such price cuts... first time for me to buy 10 or more discs.
i also went to southmall, told the saleslady that i came from podium. i asked them why they could not lower the price as much as podium did. she just smiled. anyway, was able to buy 3 discs pa rin naman from them saturday night.
like some people here, exceeds budget already! ;)
bought the nativity story disc. it says it contains 2-disc for both widescreen and full screen ed. it only contained one, got the widescreen version. :( hindi na ako umabot sa "the Passion", ubos na daw. did anyone here get it?
thanks. god bless.

Me I had to w/draw cash that day cuz I got shocked that my card was maxed out already. I didnt know my wife charged everything from their office to my card for that BPI/Jollibee spaghetti reward thing! LOL.
We have to date claimed & given away some 100 Jolli spaghettis already, ROFL.
Great haul but I wished I hauled more!

Thanks for the haul pare, It really saved me a lot ;D Inutusan ako ng ate ko to buy her 2 titles and I refused sabi ko torture sa akin kung hindi ako bibili ;D so she went there by herself and went home with around 40 titles for her kid ;D ;D ;D galit sa akin tamad daw ako :D

Too many good deals on DVDs and audio CDs, as well. Really worth the trip!
